How do we get to Greenwitch Village from Here? by A.E. Grant

posted on October 10, 2018

This is the tale of my misadventures in New York City. During the Recession of 2008, I lived in the Upper East Side, in one of the wealthiest zip codes in Manhattan, and struggled to keep the lights on while working as a hotel concierge. I witnessed how my wealthy neighbors lived and experienced what it was like to be the help in the toughest job market in the country. This period in my life was humbling, yet invaluable to my personal development. I like to refer to that time as- New York City Boot Camp-shape up or ship out! I laughed. I cried. I cursed. I grew up. I came to terms with both my financial crisis and my past. This book will make you laugh, make you want to rebel or inspire you to take on New York City yourself.
